Yes. Every Karndean floor is 100% waterproof, whichever design you choose, which makes it well suited to kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms and cloakrooms. Glue-down ranges should still be fitted to Karndean's guidance for wet areas.

Karndean residential floors come with a transferable lifetime warranty, a 35-year residential guarantee, provided the floor is bought and installed through a Karndean Approved Retailer such as Grosvenor Flooring. The warranty can be passed on if you sell your home. The Palio Essenza collection is a separate Palio by Karndean range and carries a 20-year residential warranty.

Yes. Karndean is a popular kitchen floor because it is 100% waterproof, warm and quiet underfoot and easy to clean. Glue-down ranges such as Van Gogh and Art Select give a completely flat, fully bonded finish, while the rigid core click ranges suit renovation projects over existing floors.

Glue-down Karndean (Knight Tile, Van Gogh, Art Select, Palio Essenza) is bonded to a prepared subfloor for the flattest, most permanent finish. Rigid core (Knight Tile Rigid Core and Van Gogh Rigid Core) has a waterproof SPC core, pre-attached acoustic underlay and a click-lock fit, so it needs less subfloor preparation and suits fit-over renovations.

Karndean is sold on a Request a Price basis at Grosvenor Flooring. Entry ranges such as Knight Tile and Palio Essenza are the most accessible with Van Gogh and Art Select sitting higher for their thicker wear layers and larger formats. Send us your room size and shortlisted designs for a quote and where you have a competing quote we will do our best to beat it.

It depends on the room and budget. Knight Tile is the accessible whole-home entry range with a 0.3mm wear layer, Van Gogh steps up to a 0.55mm wear layer with rich plank and herringbone designs and Art Select is the premium 0.7mm range for statement parquet and herringbone floors. Palio Essenza offers a genuine Karndean glue-down floor with an Italian-inspired palette at an accessible price.

Yes. All Karndean residential ranges are compatible with both wet and electric underfloor heating, subject to a maximum surface temperature of 27C. Always follow Karndean's installation guidance so the warranty remains valid.
